Projects

This page describes how to work within a Project.

Supported Upload File Types

Files that are imported when creating a new project or uploaded from within an existing project are subject to certain limits.

Editable file types are typically text files under 7MB in size. Text files over 7MB will be viewable as read-only.

Image file types must have one of the following extensions:

• .png
• .jpg
• .jpeg
• .gif
• .bmp
• .tiff
• .webp

PDF file types must have the .pdf file extension.

Searching across files

You can search for text content across files by clicking on the Search panel in the sidebar. You can also search by filename by opening the command palette, which is accessible by hitting cmd+shift+p.

Compiler Engines

There are three compiler engines the user can select from the Settings panel of the left sidebar.
